The Gentle Apocalypse

Bury Me On Mars

Mars has Oreos and Sand. Who gave everyone permission to go visit the dead at their graves? Why visit them then when you never visited them when they were still alive? When I die, not everyone should come visit my grave. Not everyone should cry for me. It's not lonely to be buried on Mars. It sounds quite peaceful actually.

Company

When we feel lonely, it's often very easy for us to surround ourselves with anyone that would make us feel less lonely. Anybody to take up some of that room inside the void that we feel inside. But at the end of the day, we often end up feeling even more alone than we did before we started filling up that void with people that don't understand us. That don't quite get us. This episode doesn't have the answer to the question of how to not feel like that anymore. But it will hopefully make you feel a little bit less alone.

Who are your painkillers?

Pain is a permanent part of being alive. We all experience it in different ways, at different times and in different forms. Everyone needs to have painkillers in their lives to ease the pain. That could be hobbies or shows or sports or pets, but most importantly, people! We should all have someone that's our painkiller.

Loneliness After Love

Sometimes it feels as though people that are in love live on a completely different planet from the rest of us. And sometimes, when a relationship ends, it's hard to come back down to earth and find your place in the world again. And it's easy to wonder how did you ever live without your ex in the first place. Well, this episode seeks to address such feelings and let you know that you are not alone in feeling like this.
